today my firewall kernel panic /bsd: panic: malloc: out of space in kmem_map
anyone know about number of optimize NMBCLUSTERS,NKMEMPAGES for my firewall ? machine have a physical 512MB memory. and kernel config below option NMBCLUSTERS=16384 option NKMEMPAGES=32768 maxusers 64 # estimated number of users i tested a real traffic pf states in my network over 30,000 (very busy firewall normal times) now not network busy time.
